1. In the profile post where I introduced the secret I mentioned how I like to hide stuff in my signature. If you went to my signature you would find a rainbow of fruits.

Clicking on most of the fruits wouldn't help but the second green apple (the only fruit not in Terraria) would take you to this image (next pfp).

This was the key to finding the secret. It's a URL path that can take you to a specific image shared here on the forums. Normally there are 6 digits at the end of the path that determine where URL will take you, but here the last 5 digits of the URL were missing.

2. Back to the first profile post, you might have noticed that I used a Guide emote instead of my usual Dryad emotes. The number 4 was also unusually large.

These details matched the key where the Guide emote was above the number 4. This hinted that you would need to look for out-of-place NPC emotes and then find a hidden number.

3. The Nurse could be found in this profile post and the number 1 was in a different font.

4. The Steampunker could be found in this profile post. The number was in a spelling mistake where I used "two" instead of "to."

5. The Merchant could be found in this profile post and the number was in the art itself. There was a Roman numeral 4 (IV) on the tarot card.

6. The Pirate could be found in this profile post where I shared my 3 crochet bears (I was feeling lazy).

7. Finally, the Party Girl was hidden in two different places. The first spot was in a thread where I shared a celebrating Party Girl emote.

The second spot was in my Custom Emote thread where I also had a celebrating Party Girl emote and later on a set of emotes.

In both spots you could find the number 3.

8. Putting all the numbers into the key would give you the complete URL which would take you to this image.
index.php

If you don't recognize it this binary. If you put it through a binary-to-text converter you would get a URL to this YouTube video and the end of the mini-ARG!
